seems like the amount of ore in highsec belts has plummeted dramatically since 1.2 was released. some rocks less than a quarter cycle to deplete.

also bookmarks seem to be completely out of whack. i've been told by a corpmate his are over 100km out!

Belts are being mined out because of the popularity of the new mining ships.

Miners with a scanner will often leave rocks with less than a full cycle. So a belt that might look like it has a lot of rocks could be nearly empty.

I haven't noticed any problems with bookmarks. Perhaps all the rocks near the bookmarks have been mined out.

as i understood it new roids are not that big anyway, you had to leave them a while to fatten up or you could just mine the same belt everyday, could be wrong though Smile

This is correct, they take a few downtimes to get back to full roid belt.

HAHA What read and be informed by something other than chat window? Really does EVE publish game info for players to read and be informed? Oh it is right on the log in page? Really never saw that before...
